Blind Date Turned Proposal

Chapter 320 Bankruptcy

Alice saw Josie’s aloofness after hanging up and complimented her non-stop. “Jo, you’re brilliant. You won Interior Design Awards’ first prize at only twenty-three years old! Do you know what this means?*

“My goodness. Why isn’t Laura here? I need to make her regret looking down on you!“

Winning the prize was an incredible achievement for a twenty-three-year-old woman. One should know that the youngest winner was twenty-eight before Josie broke the record.

As the winner, she would become the new standard in the design industry for the following year.

“Say something? Are you in shock?” Alice tugged Josie’s arm.

Josie glanced at the anticipating crowd and said calmly, “Let’s continue with the meeting.”

“Huh.”

“D”mn, why is she acting like she’s better than everyone.”

Josie did not have the mind to care about the whisperings around her. Her mind was preoccupied with what the committee had told her on the phone. After telling her about her winning, they added. “We have blacklisted Claire from the competition for life for committing slander and plagiarizing your work. The -whole industry will soon boycott her, so don’t worry.”
